And Now Your iPod can Kill

Seriously.

This sniper rifle features an iPod mount.

The pod (either the iPhone or iPod touch) is used for doing long-range shot calculations in order to compensate for variables such as range, heat, humidity, relative elevation between the shooter and target, cross winds, as well as the rotation of the Earth beneath the bullet's flight path.You can download this "killer" software app. from the iTunes online store.

Maybe we need a new collalary to William Gibson's observation that the street finds its own uses for tech.

Warfighting turns all things to its needs?

Now I'll never look at my sweet little Nano with such trusting eyes again.
